We use ADP and they conveniently forgot to pay Social Security. It was being removed from our checks, but we all got letters from SS stating no money was deposited into our accounts. Trying to fix it is fun, you call them and get put into a "let me transfer you" circle.

Hard to know for sure, but it does seem like maybe the company didn't move funds on time or missed a deadline and that delayed the deposits. On the other hand, I don't suppose WF is so perfect to never have an issue on their end.

@Laura Viars: Thank you -- that's what I needed to hear. We're being told that "ALL" Wells Fargo business customers had this issue, which smelled like a wet fart to me since I'm not seeing people complaining about it online. I would have expected to see some noise about it on Google/Twitbook/etc. if there was a true widespread problem.

The only times we have had that issue at our bank is when the company paying the payroll either put the wrong process date in the file or sent it in after cut off... When this happens if they dont have a lot of employees we send out wires, if they do have a lot they send a new file to run that night...

Lots of steps involved. There are deadlines/cutoff times. Hopefully your HR dept approved and sent the file to WF in time. But you're saying that WF missed this for all of their customers. Maybe their system went down. Maybe they missed the cutoff with the Federal Reserve. Might be time to start looking for a new payroll vendor. Not sure if ADP or Ceridian are partners here, but they'd be my go-to alternatives.

Does anyone elses' company use Wells-Fargo for payroll?

Mine does and it seems like we have an inordinate amount of problems compared to other places I've worked. Invariably a few times a year, the direct deposits won't go through and they'll scramble to issue paper checks.

It happened again last week. Supposed to get paid on the 31st (which often means it'll show up on the 30th). Nothing. April 1st they're scrambling to send out paper checks to everyone. So I get mine, cash it, as does everyone else.

Sometime in the wee hours of April 2nd, I get the notification e-mail that my direct deposit is to clear by the 4th. Sure enough, it did. Unfortunately for everyone, the office wants the checks returned to them. A little late for that! To top it off, many of the checks issued bounced. Mine didn't fortunately, but others at my location...

Follow-up: I did get Wells-Fargo to confirm that they indeed had an "issue" with their DirectPay service...as to what that issue was, no one seems to know. Worse, no one would talk with our HR department or firm partners about it.

Not satisfied with that answer, it sounds like our management will be pursuing a different bank.
